Our page views and audience have doubled over the past year. We just wrapped up our fourth annual MobileBeat conference, with record attendance and lots of announcements and a new format at DEMO is generating a lot of buzz. And we've been hiring more writers (Hi, Jolie O'Dell!). Stay tuned for even more announcements.

Now we're hiring to keep pace with that growth.

  • The first opening is a full-time one. We're looking for an awesome "Director of Ad Sales." (More details below.)
  • The second opening is actually an internship - but a paid, high-level one. We're looking for someone to help with content analysis and development. (More details below.)
Consider working with one of the most influential business blogs. Our content is syndicated by a growing number of partners like the New York Times and Reuters. Our thought-provoking brand of journalism means we’re a great place to build your name, whether you're on the journalism side or business side our team.

VentureBeat is obsessed with covering amazing technology and why it matters in our lives. From the most innovative companies and the incredible people behind them to the money fueling it all, VentureBeat is devoted to exhaustive coverage of the technology revolution.

We provide a fun, energetic startup environment in downtown San Francisco, a competitive salary, stock options and benefits, along with panoramic views from the 32nd floor of our 50 California Street offices.

Here is more information on the two positions:

Director of Sales: We are looking for an aggressive sales executive, steeped in online advertising experience and with a secure understanding of cloud, social and mobile technologies as they affect the consumer and enterprise. The ideal candidate is a fearless prospector and an instant value creator with established contacts who will drive VentureBeat, already at the epicenter of the start-up ecosystem and mobile revolution, to further heights. Our sales director will also help drive our event sponsorships. Years of experience is less important than a proven history of success. Please contact Alicia Saribalis, President and Publisher of VentureBeat, for further information.

Internship: Content/Partnership Analyst: Immerse yourself in the venture capital and startup ecosystem at the epicenter of the mobile revolution! VentureBeat is looking for an intern to analyze potential partnerships and conference concepts and to follow through on them. As a result of VentureBeat's rapid growth, we are receiving a heightened number of partnership requests from companies seeking to align themselves with our content or drive traffic to our site, from established channels such as CNBC to more obscure, but potentially valuable sources. We want to prescreen these requests, reach out with telephone conversations to ascertain the potential value-add of these partnerships, and then integrate them into our overall strategy. Additionally (or separately, this could be two different internships), the intern would be conversant in cloud technology and content-savvy in various aspects of mobile, social and games technology to help us divine the next perfect technology event. Ideal internship candidates are SF Bay Area MBA students or those with experience from other cool organizations or startups. Please contact Alicia Saribalis, President and Publisher of VentureBeat, for further information.

Writer: If you’re interested in freelancing or one of our ongoing internship openings, please contact us at jobs@venturebeat.com with the subject line "Writer."
